COUNTY- RETURNS.

or -- - -
turns showed practically a clear sweep
for the- Democrats in this city and I
county, icrn nag a plurality. I'etrie,
McClollan, Cox, Arnold, Hardest',
Markham, Pacheco nnd Petrio aro probably
elected as supervisors. Jarrott
and Roso "won the cxpocted big victories
and Cathcart is probably defeated.
Bickncll and Kalauoknlani aro reelected
nnd McCarthy had a big lead
over Smithies.
The ninth, of tho fifth, with one
hundred nioro to count, was running
two to one Democratic. Final results
may elect Wolters instead of Cox.
(Continued' from Pago Two)
F. men when thoy took their turn in
the limolight of tho magic iantern.
Night Comes On.
Soon after fivo o'clock the scattering
groups before Tho Advertiser oflico began
to mcrgo into larger and over larger
ones until tne irouuy euro, wom tuning
their way through the reluctant
masses, soomed almost as ships surging
forward through a sea, turbulont,
tut good natured. Seen from above tho
massed humanity tossed nnd waved liko
a wind-blown sea. Swift changes ran
across its surface, as the roturns flashed
faster and faster on tho shoot, reminding
tho watcher of tho swift alterations
in tho ocean. Some brought
"boxes and camped between tho car
tracks.
As tho figures showed tho increasing
load of tho Bourbon nominees tho excitement
grew greater. Men with
stentorian voices led volicying drifts
of cheers that overflowed the' confines
of tho street and broke in waves of
sound in tho surrounding thorough-faros.
And tho women of the CTowd,
aiot io bOlS0utd.fin,o, by her lordand,
supposed master whoso rule was
doomed now that tho Democrats and,
women' suffrage were together triumphant
cheered just as frantically
and just as continuously as their softer
throats permiitted.
In Chinatown Too.
In Chinatown, for a time at least,
tho holiday spirit was keen. Celestial
citizens of tho city appeared to
politics with ail tho intorest of
their white neighbors in spite of tho
fact that the law docs not nllow them
to voto, Tho streets wcro soon deserted,
however, by tho usual crowds,
liound for points whore their thirst for
information might bo quenched. Thoy
left Chinatown to add themselves to
tho Tanks of those packed in front of
Tho Advortiscr ollico and tho Republican
headquarters.
Most of them stayed in King street.
Tho crowd before tho Iiopublican headquarters
,was comparatively small, although
long iiiies of automobiles lent
a tone Bomowhat lacking from tho
laTgcr assembly. But thoy failed to
dispell tho gloom of that vicinity. It
grow denser as tho night grow older.
One pretty girl was heard to say to
a malo friend, who lifting his hat,
tried to open a conversation:
"Oh, you'ro a Democrat. Don't
conio round here. I feel too badly."
Sho looked liko it, as did her escort
and tho rest of thoso in tho big car.
Looking Forward.
But there was a fooling of expectation
felt there. It was, in contradis
tinction to tho King street aggregation,
a distinctly Republican crowd and tho
constantly-repeated scntenco ono heard
-in tho ranks, "Wait until the other is
lands conio in," showed just how the in
dividual units felt. But thoy waited a
long timo, that crowd, possessing their
souls in what patienco tnoy ceuld, as aid
the two or thrco hundred that filled the
looms upstairs abovo Castlo & Cooke's
offices. There tho feeling for the defeated
rank nnd filo was most acute, and
-not oven when the Democratic headquarters
sent tho word that Maui had
given Cupid the victory did tho feeling
of gloom that had prevailed all tho evening
disperse, or oven lighten.
Bob Bhinglo, over confident of tho
Trince's triumph, looked Bhockcd when
returns from tho Oahu precincts
swept in, piling up tho figures for
to mountain proportions. But
lio kopt his fnith. to provo it, ho

I must confess that nut for a moment
did I suspect that. McCandless would
devolop tho strongtli that ho did in
Oahu. no has been hard at work, and
the vote shows it. I bolievo thnt the
voto here is but a rcflox of that which
on tho mainland snowed under tho hopes
of tho Taftors and tho Progressives.
This is a historic election.
"Of courso there were local reasons
that helped the Democrats in dofoattng
our ticket. Among the chief of these,
if not tho chief, was the banana campaign
of tho board of health. That
hurt us wherever wo went. ' '
Link Is "Wrathy.
McCandless was not backwnrd about
expressing his opinion of tho causes
that led to his defeat. Ho said:
"You may say for mo that it is hope
less to attempt to espou9o tho cause of
tho poor pcoplo of this Territory. Tho
powers thnt bo simply will not nllow
it. I put up tho hardest kind of a fight,
and if tho white men, who had received

Speaking of tho success of the rest of
tho ticket, G. J. Waller said:
"I boliove tho explanation is very
simple. It is ft Democratic year.
said that tho only way tho rich
could help tho poor was by 'getting
off their backs.' Wo Democratis aro
going to help tho rich to got off. Wo
shall not bo able to bring about tho

to do something for tho people."
Tho Colonel's Viow.
Colonol McCarthy, sitting beside
Bert Rivcnburgh in tho scat of tho
mighty, taking jfgyorts from the
in. his belated
work longenoogh rto say:
"Wo won all along tho line becauso
wo put tip clean men for office, and
conducted a clean campaign, free from
mud slinging, free from the usual dirt
of such fights as wcro waged, during
tho last month. Tho results speak
volumes in my mind, fortbo value of
such a campaign."
And Rivcnburgh nodded ascnt. Ho
was too busy to talk.
B. von Damm Mourns.
All'tho glooms of all tho world appeared
to be sittinir unon thn bowed
shoulders of B. Von Damm when tho
election returns began breaking in
upon his peace of mind early in tho
ovoning. Ho paced up, nnd down tho
crowded room at the Iiopublican headquarters,
nervous, and worried. Ono of
his henchmen approached him nbout
half after sovon o'clock and asked for
an auto to go to ono of tho delayed
precincts.
"No," ho Baid, "with this swamping
of our party, wo will .havo to watch
tho pennies. Don't go."
Thcu ho turned to tho scribo and
said. "It's a tidal wave. Clovclaud

Tho Advertiser's nttitudo toward us
has hampered tho committee seriously
during tho fight. That paper was most
impruaent in tno stand it took.
"The result of this voto will bo to

necessity, or voting a straight ticket.
Just because they wanted to scratch

John Lano also had an explanation,
lie placed tho blame for tho Republican
defeat upon the shoulders of tho board
of health. Said he last night:
"Insofnr as this campaign is concerned,

Public opinion in England, Franco and

her path to the Aegean Sea, in which
direction her trndo is expanding, whilo
nt the Bnmo timo tho Servians spread
to the Adriatic Ben.
Tho Austrian government points out
that the Albanians arc ns much a nn
tion as any of the Allies nnd that Al
linnia should bo reserved for tho Alban
inns. Tho first sign of dissention among
the Balkan Allies themselves is a dispatch
from Belgrade in which it is said
tho Servians aro beginning to declare
that the "Autonomous Albania," which
was ngrced upon before tho war was
started, has now fndod away.
In the dispatch the Musselmnn Alban
inns who fought against the Servian
troops aro blamed for tho chango in the
Servian attitude. Instead of tho two
mile stretch of tho Adriatic coast
hithorto claimed by Servia tho same dis.
patch says that Servia now wants sixty"
miles and that in return Montenegro is
to got inoro than hor allotment of tho
district of Novibnmr,
Tho correspondent adds that, "tho
Emperor of Russia will bo taken as ar
bitratcr between Servia and Bulgaria
in legnrd to theso conflicts which wcro
not foreseen in tho original agreement
between tho Allies."
It is officially btnted in a dispatch
from Bolgrnde that the Servians having
annihilated tho Turkish army in
Mrtedonia have been ordered to assist
tho Bulgarians, Greeks and Montene
grins. A large forco of Servians has
already passed through Sofia on the way
to Adrianoplo, tho bombardment of
which continues without abatement.
